One to state, you must have a bulb of "maximum brightness" and then post endless rebuttals in the same thread defending ones own "maximum brightness" theories.

</font><font color="blue" class="small">( I use a lot of bulbs. Where can I buy an attachment to change my bulbs? Either a 3pt or FEL (skid steer mount) will do. )</font>


You definitely want to go with a pto-driven bulb changer. It takes a lot of hp to run one of those babies with hydraulics.

You can pick up a cheap chinese bulb changer at any Homier roadshow, but I'd advise against it. I just don't think the quality is there. Bulb changers aren't as simple as back blades or carry-alls; if the welds aren't true or it's a little off center, you'll never get those bulbs lined up with the sockets. Worst case scenario... the bulb-holding thingy won't be machined properly and the bulbs will fall right through. You get what you pay for with bulb changers, I'd go back to the dealer who sold you your tractor and get the factory-matched unit, preferably subframe mounted. Some of those bulbs can be a bear to loosen, and we've all heard stories of 3-pt hitch mounted bulb changers breaking the rear housing on a tractor from the torque.

Now, Bob Skurka might jump in and say that those little compact tractor bulb changers aren't worth the investment, and that you'd be better off by renting an industrial bulb changer once or twice a year. That's definitely something to think about, but if you're changing bulbs on a regular basis, you'd probably want to buy your own.

My bulbs are smarter than your bulbs. In other words your bulbs aren't too bright, I think they might be dim-witted.

</font><font color="blue" class="small">( But like you said.. couldn't replace the heat lamp.. which reminds me.. I have to get the baby chicks out of the living room this weekend or my better half(fiance) will kill me! The cats & dogs just love watching them.. I think it's like "chick" TV! )</font>

Sounds like my house. Except we keep the incubator in the 'bird room'. where the wife raises finch, cockatial, and parakeets.

Yep.. heat lamps.. easy bake ovens.. etc.
